The Connoisseurs Mountain Marathon

LAMM 2006 Introduction
Wednesday 21st December 2005

It’s time to think ahead to LAMM 2006. It will take place on 17/18th June 2006, the same weekend as last year. As usual, the venue will be a fine and undisclosed location in keeping with the Connoisseurs Mountain Marathon! This year the event will be further north than Isle of Mull 2005 (not further south
as was stated in an advert for the LAMM that has just appeared in the FRA Fixtures List). We like to hold a “far north” and a “not so far north” event on alternate years, always in a classic part of the Scottish Highlands.

Our planner for 2006 is Andy Spenceley, well known to mountain marathoners and fell runners alike. We're very pleased that Angela Mudge is returning again as controller.

Excellent News From Lowe Alpine
We are delighted that Lowe Alpine have guaranteed another two years of LAMM sponsorship and this secures the event for the foreseeable future. Lowe Alpine has been a great sponsor ever since the
first event at Arrochar in 1994. Many thanks from the organisers and competitors alike for a top commitment to people, enjoying competition in the outdoors.

Need More Information About the LAMM?
Please take a look at all the online 2004 and 2005 information - Event Details & Final Details, Best Routes & Results, Control Descriptions, Galleries and Reports/Feedback from Glencarron and Isle of
Mull. This should give you a flavour of the event and help you to choose the best course for your team.

Entries for 2006
Entry to the event is online only at www.lamm.co.uk and will take place from mid-February. Please ensure you have joined the LAMM email mailing list so that we can tell you when entries are being taken. The LAMM following is so faithful that the 2005 event was oversubscribed. We would strongly recommend an early commitment this year to avoid disappointment. We will save a few slots to allow late entries for Elite and A teams.

The LAMM Team looks forward to meeting you all again on Friday 16th June 2006. Don’t miss out on it or you may regret it later!
